DRY ASH HANDLING SYSTEM

In coal based power plants two type of ash generated.
Wet ash and Dry ash.
Ratio of wet ash to dry ash is 30:70
Wet ash is only money consuming by product of coal
plant because it require a lot of money for handling of
wet ash.
Although, dry ash is by product, unlike wet ash it is a
money making by product and utilized in many fields
like in cement industries and for brick making.

1 Plant Air It also known as service air and used as service air for cleaning air at
different locations.

2 Instrument Air - It is used to operate pneumatic valve at different areas and

COOLING TOWERS
There are three cooling towers in BTPS.
Cooling Towers Fulfill the scarcity of water and is that
component which transform open cycle power plant to
closed cycle.
Cooling Towers are nothing more then heat exchanger..
In cooling towers, heat exchange process take place where
cooling medium is environmental air and interaction of hot
water with environmental air brings down temperature of hot
water to environmental temperature.
